Testing Information

Students applying to the Associate Degree Nursing program or the Practical Nursing program will have to complete the Assessment Technologies Institute (ATI) TEAS test with a minimum proficiency score of 67.5% (ADN) or 60% (LPN). A student may complete and submit an application to the Allied Health Coordinator, but evaluation and ranking will occur only after completion of the TEAS admission test shows a proficient level. TEAS scores must be submitted before the May 31st application deadline.

Students will have three attempts from September 1 to May 31 to obtain a proficiency score of 67.5% (ADN) or 60% (LPN) on the TEAS test. Students are encouraged to prepare for the TEAS test prior to their testing date. As well, remediation services are offered through ATI should a student score less than the 67.5% (ADN) or 60% (LPN) required minimum proficiency. Students completing TEAS testing at other facilities may have an official ATI TEAS transcript sent to the Allied Health Admissions coordinator, provided the scores occurred on a testing date within the twelve calendar months of the application deadline (May 31st).

Testing will be offered on the campus of BCCC, in the building 12 (Allied Health Building) computer lab. Multiple dates will be offered including evening and weekends. Please see the ATI TEAS link under the Allied Health Admissions website for testing procedures, cost and registration information.
